I'm a Celebrity! Are you???

[KasinoKing]

So it's that time of year again when 10 so-called celebrities get thrown into the Australian jungle to eat kangaroo penis and koala's balls...

Now usually I have heard of 3 or 4 of these people before - but this year sets a new record!
I have only heard of ONE of them - and I'm pretty sure you can guess which one!

• Jamie Lynn Spears
• Nigel Farage
• Nick Pickard
• Josie Gibson
• Fred Sirieix
• Nella Rose
• Danielle Harold
• Sam Thompson
• Marvin Humes
• Grace Dent

How many have you heard of before???

Hmm, two. Guess I'd need to watch more junk TV and ... that's not going to happen. D

- Max

Of these 'celebrities' I only know of Farage, and I've 'heard' of Spears but couldn't tell you who or what they have done or do. The rest are straight over my head!

 

[kou187]

The world celebrity means nothing these days clearly. Looking at that list i recognize one name and that's farage. What a joke!

 

[goatwack]

Josie Gibson from her Big Brother fame and current presenting gigs, Britney Spears' sister, and of course Farage: the saviour of British politics

The rest......not so much

This is their M.O now, get one 'star' name and fill in the rest with unknowns.

Used to be a good show around 20 years ago, not so much now.

Who can forget this timeless hilarity?

 

[dunover]

Obviously Farage, my mate yes. The others no unless that Sam 'bloke' is the one I saw being mocked on the GB News and calls himself a 'they' and said his dad was a 'Fisherthey' not a fisherman? In that case 1 deffo, two just about. So the usual one big name and 8-9 nonentities and z-listers. All presented by that pair of drivelling plastic paddy c*n^$. Luckily nobody in this house watches the shite.

 

[Jono777]

I've had several names and comments towards this show over the years and sadly "celebrity" does not even come close, more like "has been" and "never was"

Strangely do find myself watching the odd bits though

I do hear that the presenters are top notch and entertaining to watch

 

[goatwack]

You mean these two Award-winning presenters?

 

[mcgameboy]

Am I about to admit to knowing FOUR of them?

Nigel Farage

Fred who does that biscuit advert which tells you to taste the love and presents some dating show thing

Josie Gibson from This Morning (don't watch it, hate it with a fucking passion actually - I mean seriously, why would I want to watch TV's "favourite couple" (Holly Willoughby), Dermot O'Dreary, Alison I ate all the Hammond and Gino The Campo?) I WOULD RATHER DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE

Grace Dent (she used to write about Big Brother in the Radio Times and done some judging on some foodie programme I think - Masterchef maybe?).
Basically a lower class version of C*nt and D*ck ie a Geordie/North Easterner who doesn't work for a living but gets paid lots of money to do so.

Remind me why I have a TV licence again?

PS JUST. SHOOT. ME. NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

Six here and if Tony Bellew goes in later in the week, that will be seven. But then I am a big boxing fan. He was actually going to be my guest at the iGB Affiliate Awards many moons ago in 2012, but then got a shot at the vacant British Light Heavyweight title in April that year. So had to go into camp and had to pass.

This was eons before he became a big star and just after he lost to Nathan Cleverly on points for the WBO World Title - a fight he should have won IMO. If 'Bomber' does go in, along with Nigel Farage he will be the most 'famous' of the celebs participating, by a country mile

Anyhow I digress. Yes we are watching it in the Webzcas household, but yeah pretty much Z list of celebs.

 

[dunover]

By the way according to the Britsh Board of Communists the viewing figures plunged compared to the last shitshow in 2022. Down by 22% or over 2 million down compared to then. Hardly surprising, it should follow the X fucter into obscurity and distant memory where they at least acknowledged it was tired and unpopular so binned it. I mean, is there a maximum IQ stipulated to watch the crap? Like 75?

Thrush & Chlamydia are surely well past their sell-by date now, they are rapidly becoming the modern-day Bruce Fucksake or Jimmy Tarbrush. Should stick to drug-driving and rehab centres to spare us all.

SIx? Wow - you must watch a LOT of TV

I've never heard of Tony Bellew either - so that's another one.
Though now it's started I realised I have heard of the JLS singer Marvin before - I even bought their album after their performances on X-Factor!

KK

 

[Webzcas]

Not really, most of my content I watch is on Youtube or Netflix. But the wife does watch Masterchef, hence I am aware of Grace Dent.

We used to watch X Factor back in the day, so the JLS guy I know. Jamie Lynn Spears courtesy of being Britney's sister and then Josie Gibson from when she was on Big Brother.

First Dates is something we have watched, hence I know of Fred and obviously everyone knows you cannot 'Barrage' the Farage. Plus I watched The Muppets as a kid!

Come now @dunover don’t attempt to pretend you’re not a JLS fan!

I am sure that after many beverages consumed, several people have caught you in the act of busting out the shapes of JLS dance routines during the course of several Meister Meetings

I thought JLS was a chain store until that post by KK. How can a man who has been to Donington MoR like me ever, ever end up purchasing plastic talent show music? the mind boggles.

 

[dunover]

Complaints pour in over I’m A Celebrity final amid fears from viewers Nigel Farage could win: ‘Ofcom, do something!’

Three reasons why it would be brilliant if NF won it:

1. I like the bloke, cleverest contestant they ever had.

2. Thrush & Chlamydia's faces as the two tittering twats paste on rictus smiles and congratulate him if he does, their fake sincerity dissolving into bile.

3. Above all, very likely the moronic c*nting series would subsequently disappear forever, hopefully with its gibbering inane presenters.

We live in hope.

I hear the whole thing's over, so I'm told, and questions are posed as to the legitimacy of the winner.

Truth be told, anyone that even watched any of these Reality TV abominations even at their inception, and were somehow of the belief that results weren't engineered for various reasons, really ought to be quarantined from the rest of the population

After weeks of belittling, confronting, insulting etc Farage from all corners, I hear he conducted himself pretty well, maintaining his integrity while all those around him - including the two hyena presenters - tried their utmost to get a 'racist Brexiteer gammon moment', but to no avail.....

And with that much open hostility from all involved with the show, did we honestly believe ITV would allow him to win? Please!

Sadly for his detractors, they've made themselves look petulant and comically un-self-aware of their TDS-inspired mind-haze, as even the GMB harridans were beside themselves in attempting to denounce him via video-feed, and now he looks set to cause more power dynamics in the political sphere.

Couldn't tell you who actually won it, it's a cursory acknowledgement of some guy who maybe was in something once. But as for the real winner, well, let's just say he seemingly finished third
